Anyone Make Shocks For A 2WD With A Two Inch Lift?
I have a leveling kit (2" lift) and I need to replace my shocks.

I am having trouble finding shocks made for stock + 2"

I have Skyjacker Hydro 7000's on my 95 dually with a 2" lift...I don't have the numbers anymore, but any skyjacker dealer should be able to help you...or you could call Skyjacker direct!

call ProComp, give them your measurement eylet to eyelet as the truck sets normally and they will probably have a set for you.

I called them and they only have them for 4wd.




Does anyone know what the difference in shocks between a 2wd and a 4wd? Its just a shock right?

Well, whoever you talked to doesn't want to help very much...I have a set of them

A Shock is a shock...to a point. I don't remember if a 2wd and 4wd will interchange or not!

I've looked, and I can't find the part numbers Skyjacker gave me! I've had them about 3 years...so the shocks are so rusty you can't read them either!

Well since yo are having trouble finding shocks for a 2wd 2" over stock try to locate a set of shock extensions. They are extensions that bolt to the top of the shock and gice you about 2 more inches of shock length. They may help your situation and keep the shock in the stock operating range. I used them on my Toyota rat rig in the early 90's after i installed a double shock kit and was waiting for my new shocks to be dilevered.
